Dragged out my Sheffield LP's for a listen.........
I dragged out a couple of Sheffield Direct To Disc recordings today for
lack of anything else to do. Playback equipment is a Thorens TD 316 Turntable.. Shure V15 Type V MR cartridge...Marantz 2285B Pre-amp (actually the pre-amp part of a reciever) BW 800D speakers, Bryston 4B amp..also played in my studio on Event ASP8's... All I can say is WOW................. CD, sounds nice, but it don't sound like Harry playing on D2D, I'm sorry.... The image, fullness of response, depth and natural sound are all there and even though my TT is not the greatest...... It literally sounds like the band is right in front of me, and while CD's are nice, and theory is in their favor, I would offer up that people interested in comparisons, should seriously listen to some great analog D2D stuff on decent playback equipment because you really might be surprised. I was... However, i am not about to scrap digital, I am only pointing out that analog can sound real freaking good when played on decent equipment. A bottle of chianti and Harry blowing his horn has made for a wonderful evening.... Peace!! flatfish+++ (the real one, not the troll) |

Of course this may be a function of distortion, etc. but it seems to be more "lifelike" in many ways. I was... However, i am not about to scrap digital, I am only pointing out that analog can sound real freaking good when played on decent equipment. Hear Hear. A bottle of chianti and Harry blowing his horn has made for a wonderful evening.... Peace!! I'm fortunate enough to have a moderate collection of classical and jazz LPs, including some Sheffield and MoFi stuff, although not nearly as many as I'd like. But a well pressed Phillips or RCA can sound damn good, too... I must say though that the new SACD recordings I've heard are better than LP in 99% of the cases, and simply blow away CDs. Very "alive" sounding and smooth. Best of both worlds IMO. Karl Winkler Lectrosonics, Inc. http://www.lectrosonics.com |

Sure, there are occasional clicks and pops, but somehow, I dunno why, the music just sounds *good*.... At least THAT TYPE of music, IOW jazz/bigband. I'm fortunate enough to have a moderate collection of classical and jazz LPs, including some Sheffield and MoFi stuff, although not nearly as many as I'd like. But a well pressed Phillips or RCA can sound damn good, too... Yes they do. I have a decent, although somewhat borked dues to crummy tt's collection myself. They sound a lot better today than I would have ever thought back in 1979. I must say though that the new SACD recordings I've heard are better than LP in 99% of the cases, and simply blow away CDs. Very "alive" sounding and smooth. Best of both worlds IMO. I agree.... Most, recorded for CD recordings of major artists sound wondeful. Unfortunately, it's the crap, mostly rap stuff that gives audio a bad name. I'm getting sick of hearing Earth Wind and Fire's "Setptember" horn riff in rap tunes..... FWIW if you can find a copy of Manhattan Transfer's Live album on vinyl it's a keeper. I used to tour with Bose (don't shoot me) and that's what we used to demo the 901's....Of course the 4 track tape was juiced beyond belief, but you didn't hear it from me Karl Winkler Lectrosonics, Inc. http://www.lectrosonics.com |

That would be a different experiment. He's saying he prefers the sound of great musicians playing in a carefully chosen acoustic space feeding a world class mic into state-of-the art preamps directly feeding a cutting lathe to the sound of the same source and record electronics feeding a great two track analog deck played back into a mid-80s A/D converter recorded onto a PCM1610 (unless it's one of the newer transfers.) |

CDs can't compete with well made and played vinyl for natural sound, depth and dimension. Vinyl is not dead and a very viable medium that people should re-explore. But hi res. digital does sound good indeed, and maybe someday we'll see a higher quality consumer medium.......and 16/44 CDs will go the way of cassettes!!! VB |

He liked the sound on this one recording, that's all. I'll bet that if the original master disk was available and still in good shape, a CD made with all the care of the vinyl pressing, when played through good equipment, would sound equally as good. But I can't prove that to you because I don't have the master. It was music from a different time, and that's far more important than the accuracy of an equalizer. I actually agree 100%. I'm just saying that while I own my fair share of DD vinyl from those days and can attest to the excitement I feel and felt when listening to it I just don't find vinyl to be all that accurate. It may be a pleasing sound that legions prefer, but accuracy is not one of its hallmarks. I'm certain that if one were to put the best mastering lathe into a signal path in an ab test that one would pick the non lathe path as being more accurate with a high degree of probability. |

Ears don't lie and damn the numbers. Ears don't lie? Obviously VB you are ignorant of the many well-known audible illusions. Furthermore VB, you have demonstrated quite clearly that you don't think your ears work at all unless you can see what is playing. CDs can't compete with well made and played vinyl for natural sound, depth and dimension. In fact, it is Vinyl that can't compete with well made and played CDs for natural sound, depth and dimension, low noise, excellent dynamic range, playing time, durability, easy production and reproducability, as well as full audible frequency response. In fact the main sucessor medium to the CD has turned out to have less natural sound, depth, dimension, low noise, etc. showing that the CD format can easily exceed consumer demands for sound quality. Vinyl is not dead and a very viable medium that people should re-explore. Vinyl is dead except in a few tiny niche markets, at least one of which has nothing to do with sound quality. But hi res. digital does sound good indeed, and maybe someday we'll see a higher quality consumer medium.......and 16/44 CDs will go the way of cassettes!!! No way. What really happened is that cassettes went the way of vinyl. |

How do vinyls recorded in 1955 compare with those done 20 years later? The difference here is that as the technology improved, the sound quality of many CDs got worse, rather than better over that 20-year period. On the other hand, the improvement in LP sound quality from, say, 1947 to 1967 was considerable (although a lot of it did result from engineers learning what they could and could not get away with). --scott -- "C'est un Nagra.

Yep, one ear is rolled off, but the other is flat out to 16khz. And FWIW, I'm 65. The averages are just that, averages. My two ears on average roll off. But one doesn't. Moreover, the brain has a wonderful way of equalizing, so long as one ear is good. It boosts the other ear subjectively. What you hear when listening with both ears is quite different from what you hear when listening with just one. Moreover, it doesn't take super frequency response to hear glare if it is present. It originates in the upper mid-range, not the extreme treble. |

This thread just prompted me to pull out my three Harry James Sheffields and give them a listen once again...haven't had them out for at least seven years or so. Sampled all six sides, no glare but an occassional mic overload. For the most part, wonderful, natural big-band sound. I was lucky enough to hear the Basie Big Band two years ago in a club setting...so have a pretty good idea of what such bands sound like close up. These Sheffields are very, very well done. And the performances are a wonderful sampler of the big band era (my dad in addition to being an 40's era audiophile, was also a jazz drummer in college and I grew up on this stuff). |

You say this is if it were fact. It ain't. Arny, you (or someone) needs to build a little box with a cascaded A/D and D/A (of reasonable but not insane quality) and a PIC which can mechanically switch an output between the analog line in and the cascade to do double blind switching control. We could lend it to these guys and ask for their results (encoded so as to not be subject to fakery.) :-) To mask the cascade's (probably detectable) delay, a short silent period could be inserted at every switch time.

Lots of reason to have concerns, the least of which is not his ability to tolerate and even apparently favor the tics and pops that come with vinyl playback that has not been assisted digitally. |
